It was pretty seamless! So much easier than I was expecting since I've never had to deal with this type of assessment. Brian was prompt, communicated clearly and replied quickly. He answered all of my questions, provided invoice and test results as promised. Payment was smooth and happy to say...

EJ was a pleasure to work with. He understood that we were under a time-crunch with needing this test done and went the same day as the request to the home to begin the test. He was also prompt in sending the results. I would highly recommend this company and EJ.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

If you can locate building records, you may be able simply to see what type of tiles (or bonding agent) was used. Any flooring made between 1950 and 1989 more than likely contains asbestos. Asbestos tiles can also be slightly thicker than other tiles and often measure 9” x 9”, 12” x 12”, and 18” x 18. Black mastic was a commonly used adhesive that contains asbestos.

Sampling typically takes 1-3 hours, and depending on the provider, lab results are available within 2-7 days.

Although the use of asbestos has declined since the 1980s, it remains in several different types of building construction materials for insulation and as a fire retardant. Typically, asbestos can be found in materials such as ceiling and floor tiles, heat-resistant fabrics and coatings, and roof shingles. You may also find asbestos in textured paint and patching compounds.

Asbestos is absolutely cancerous. In fact, around 4% of all lung cancer cases are the result of asbestos exposure. This is why we recommend a full, professional removal and cleaning of any asbestos found in your home. If you are unsure whether there is any present, you should call a pro who will inspect your property.

DIY kits are available, but professional testing ensures accurate results and compliance with regulations.
